    La Plaza de Cultura y Artes will finally open on Saturday in downtown Los Angeles near Olvera Street. The new museum and cultural center is dedicated to the largest ethnicity in a city with no ethnic majority. Also, Mayor Villaraigosa's sixth address on the State of the City and the new "zero tolerance" policy for rowdy behavior starting tonight at Dodger Stadium. On our rebroadcast of today's To the Point, a "great debate" beginning on Capitol Hill?
